like arms - naevus lyrics

[verse 1]
my memory is alive
beneath folds of disease
i have exclusive access
to its power of release
but i cannot use it
no matter how i try
to break the surface
of everyday life
i am looking down
at a dirty street
i have no place to sit and
i have no place to eat
who is responsible for
this particular loss?
i don’t need hands to know
what this chain of events will cost

[chorus]
i choose not to foam at the mouth
i separated out
the rough from the raw
and found that there was nothing more
so i drank
then i sat in a chair
and tried to carve things in the air
where i fell for despair
[verse 2]
there are undergarments
showing through
the glassy waters
of a deep black pool
i will fish them out
with a wooden stick
i will hold them up to
the light; they’re sick
historical figures
shudder into view
anonymously
they sway in unison
they struggle, unaware
to meet in ages
is that so bad?
the dogs all stop to look

[chorus]
i choose not to foam at the mouth
i separated out
the rough from the raw
and found that there was nothing more
so i drank
then i sat in a chair
and tried to carve things in the air, just over there
where i fell for despair
